Tahoe Regional Planning Agency and DKS Associates staff spend time listening to community members at outdoor events and community meetings throughout the year.
The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency places a high value on public participation in planning and decisions. The public should be given ample opportunities for early, meaningful, and continued involvement. Specifically in the agency’s transportation planning, collecting diverse public input is important for determining the types of projects that meet public needs and ensures funds are directed to the areas of highest need.
The agency is releasing the Draft 2024 Public Participation Plan today for a forty-five (45) public comment period. The draft plan outlines key decision points for consulting with affected communities, local, regional, state, and federal agencies and Tribal governments. This announcement and the comment period are required parts of the Public Participation Plan. The comment period for the document commences on February 20, 2024 and closes on April 5, 2024. Public comments will be accepted through 5:00 p.m. on April 5.
Staff will present the final plan to the TRPA Governing Board for potential adoption at its regular monthly meeting on April 24. We look forward to your feedback!
